With Purim only a week away it is time for you to sit down and think about important things such as, “are there any cool hipster graggers out there?”, “is the obligatory drunkenness indicator of “ad deloh yuda” applicable to confusing Law and Order SVU and Criminal Intent?” and naturally “Can I pull of the Slutty Rebetzin Costume?” These are all important questions which may be on your mind as you read this, but the real question you should be ruminating on is “What Costume will ensure Award Stature at the Bangitout.com Purim Party @ Havana Central?” to this we have put some ideas for you on paper… enjoy, share ideas and make sure you bring home the gold this saturday night.
